The Sensitive Queens

Vikram went back to the tree and put Betal on his shoulders again. Betal started telling him another story.

King Jaipal had three queens. Each of them was very beautiful, sensitive, and fragile. One day, the first queen was wounded when a flower from her hair fell on her thigh. Another night when the king took the second queen to the terrace, the moon light burned her skin. Another day when the third queen heard someone weeping in the next room, she became pale and fainted.

Betal asked Vikram, among the three queens who is most sensetive. Vikram replied, "The third queen was the most sensitive to the suffering of others are truly sensitive." Betal was very happy with the answer. He said , "You are great, but you always make the mistake of breaking your silence. So I can't go with you." Saying this, Betal flew back to the tree.
